The Hong Kong Observatory (HKO) launched an upgrade version of 'MyObservatory' iPhone app in July 2010, providing location-specific weather service together with 7-day weather forecast, weather warnings, tropical cyclone track, satellite and radar images, etc. The upgrade version is well received by the users.

In addition to application on an iPhone, 'MyObservatory' can also be used on iPad. To get 'MyObservatory' onto an iPad, simply press the 'App Store' button (Figure 1) on the main screen of iPad, and then enter the app's name 'MyObservatory' in the search box at the top right hand corner (Figure 2). 'MyObservatory' will be installed when the 'FREE' button is pressed (as indicated by the green box in Figure 2).
